Solved New PCL XL error illegal Media Size Posted on 2010-06-30 Printers and Scanners 1 Verified Solution http://serverfault.com/questions/530573/pcl-xl-error-warning-illegalmediasource 3 Comments 10,030 Views Last Modified: 2013-12-15 There are some other posts here and on other web sites saying to change the driver. This doesn't apply to this problem. We are using the 32 bit and 64 bit UPD PCL (v5.1) pcl xl driver from HPs web site. This is happening on a CLJ 4700 and a CLJ 2550. I have deleted the printers and recreated them on the server to be sure nothing was left behind. When my boss and two other employees print to the same printer using the same driver and setting from the server they get the PCL XL error illegal Media Size error on the following page. On the non working PCs I have gone into server properties and removed pcl xl error all other drivers and installed the driver from the server and verified it is working but it still prints that second page with the error. When most people print using the driver from the server it doesn't print the extra page with the error. This happens when printing a self test with in Windows 7 Devices and Printers so it isn't an application issue. We have tested PDFs, Word, Excel, Outlook, Publisher files and they all print the second page with the error on the non working PCs. The UPD PS (v5.1) driver doesn't generate the error so I added that as an option but they didn't seem to like scrolling to a different printer. The self test for the non working PCs prints the section "If you can read ......" this line will print two extra words "Printing PC" dropping the L for PCL on my working PC it doesn't print those words on the same line it prints them on the following line and it prints Printing PCL. The problem appears to be the increased margin on the non working PCs but I don't know how to fix it. Something in the profile or windows I guess.

What causes this and how to fix it? windows-xp drivers printing share|improve this question asked Aug 13 '13 at 7:51 Sašo 1,1991611 add a comment| 2 Answers 2 active oldest votes up vote 2 down vote accepted Related question: PCL XL Error The problem lies in the usage of PCL6 drivers. It is likely that Windows XP does not support the drivers perfectly and thus causes errors (Illegal Media Source means that it tries to fetch paper from a tray that doesn't exist). PCL5e has been around for longer and doesn't have such issues. Bottom line: use PCL5e over PCL6 if you encounter problems. share|improve this answer answered Aug 13 '13 at 7:51 Sašo 1,1991611 add a comment| Did you find this question interesting?
